"Karen Berger is making a serious effort to broaden the scope of the 

Vertigo line. Since many of the titles eventually make it into 
Trade
Paperbacks, this could be of major importance in expanding the 
audience
of comics....DC's Helix line hasn't had a huge hit yet, but 
it's good
to see a publisher actively trying to promote a line of 
science fiction
comics, and they are publishing a couple of titles that 
are worth
reading....Warren Ellis and Darick Robertson's 
Transmetropolitan comes 
to mind."
